Question

I have a list of items inside a table. I have decided to change the table structure a bit so that things look more organized, and added some more <tr>‘s in.
What happened is that my jQuery code doesn’t work well anymore.

I have that piece of code:

$(':input:not(.ajax-confirmed)').each(function(m,r){
    var $row = $(r).closest('tr');
    $row.remove();
});

I would simply like to select the closest <tr> and signify it with an additional parameter, I thought maybe a class, so that I know what kind of <tr> I am removing.

How can I select the closest tr with a specific class name?

This should work, depending on your HTML structure:

$(':input:not(.ajax-confirmed)').each(function(m,r){
    var $row = $(r).closest('tr.className');
    $row.remove();
});

Hope this helps!
